About the host
Hosted by Courtney
You’ve probably noticed we don’t have a lot of reviews yet. Let me put your mind at ease about that.
Hi, I’m Courtney, a pediatric doctor. My husband Matt and I are excited to host you in our cottage in Spring Lake. Matt’s family is connected to this area through multiple generations. His grandmother used to teach swimming lessons at Lakeside Beach.
We were lucky to find this sweet, cozy cottage and spent months choosing just the right furnishings to help it feel like a home away from home for our guests. We will do everything in our power to make sure you have the vacation of a lifetime.
